LeBron James[1] will be named NBA MVP today, according to Brian Windhorst of Cleveland’s Plain Dealer[2]. Citing league sources, Windhorst reported the announcement will be made this afternoon at the St. Vincent – St. Mary High School in Akron, the same gym where James announced his decision to enter the NBA. James averaged 28.4 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 7.6 assists this season. He will be the first Cavalier in franchise history to win the award, which will be presented prior to Game 1 of the Cavs-Hawks series on Tuesday night in Cleveland.
